    If you realized how rediculous this question was then you would realize that you really can't answer it off the top of your head.

    In a given week where odds are offered on fights many times 50% of these are mismatches odds wise where a fave is -500 or above, how often does a draw happen in these, hardly ever.  How often does the draw happen in fights that are closer than this, still very rare.  But you have to understand it all depends on the style of fighters; for example does the fighters style usually lead to a decision verdict, is a fighter B's fights tough to score, is fighter A in a lot of tight fights, is a knockdown expected, 10 round or 12 round fight, and so on.  Trust me there isn't really a good answer to your question but if you want to keep it simple; are draws rare?  Yes.

    If you are asking this question you really should be betting boxing though.

    The market price of 25-1 on 5 dimes would suggest that there is a 4% chance of a draw. I'd say the actual chances are closer to 2%.

    In a given week where odds are offered on fights many times 50% of these are mismatches odds wise where a fave is -500 or above, how often does a draw happen in these, hardly ever.  How often does the draw happen in fights that are closer than this, still very rare.  But you have to understand it all depends on the style of fighters; for example does the fighters style usually lead to a decision verdict, is a fighter B's fights tough to score, is fighter A in a lot of tight fights, is a knockdown expected, 10 round or 12 round fight, and so on.  Trust me there isn't really a good answer to your question but if you want to keep it simple; are draws rare?  Yes.

    If you are asking this question you really should be betting boxing though.

    Yeah, but you personally think Calzaghe wins easily.  Your price may be a bit slanted toward that.

    I just doubt that the books are offering you value on a draw prop. But come on, we know if GBP is cheating, it's Hopkins SD not a draw. They don't want the old man to have to train for this fight again.
